MBTA: Walking through Boylston station

Some impressions of Boston's Boylston MBTA station. This station is one of the two stations opened in 1897 as part of the Tremont Street Subway, the oldest subway in Northern America.
The time i was there, there were no Green Line trains running because of power problems in the Downtown area (i had to walk a lot this afternoon :-)).

why were there people in the station and was it free?

[Moepabc]

i dont know. Maybe they hoped that service would resume soon (luckily evereything was ok the next morning because we hab to go to the airport)

[Moepabc]

yes, but i dont know when next time will be. Boston is about 6000km away from here^^.

Now, i plan to film some German subways.

i go through boylston just about every other day. i always think WOW this is the ugliest stop of all the stops. they really need to fix it up. but maybe they are trying to preserve this one stop.

They recently modernized the lighting in there. It used to be these old incandescent fixtures , and they gave the station this cool old style orangey look.
